What a kind and thoughtful lady you really are Dee, to be wishing all of us well at this time. I think Java was bringing your attention to the little things - namely her! The words on the wall are lovely and I'm so gald you are able to be positive. Let Java be your silver lining! She's a little smasher! xx

And Happy Holidays to you too! What a beautiful bird Sunny is - he looks like he's smiling in that last shot! Thanks for sharing.

What a lovely gesture - I got quite choked lighting my candle. Karma for you caseyandmikey for starting this thread. x

What a lovely story Dan. Thanks for sharing. I love whales.

Lol - The truth is out there!

He's lovely Bernie - sounds like your smitten!

I don't know how she managed this cos there was only one rich tea in the bottom of the jar, but Alfie managed to scoop it out and make off with her prize!

Alfie was helping me wrap presents the other night when I snapped this - couldn't have staged this shot if I'd tried!

Hehe! Funny Dan, thanks for sharing.

Well said Dan.

I do hope you get some answers Dee, for your own piece of mind and to be sure there is no danger to Java. It sounds as if the vet and the breeder will do all they can to give you some sort of understanding of this tragic event. xx

Wow Bernie thats awesome. Thank you for sharing.

This is a good link, thank you Sheila. It's unbelievable how many everyday and seemingly innocent items can be dangerous to our birds.

Oh Dee I am so sorry for you. I can't believe this has happened. Please know our thoughts are with you at this sad time. I wish I was close enough to give you a hug. x

So very glad to hear Juno seems to be stable. Let him know we're all thinking of him - I'm sure animals understand the sentiment, if not always the sentence. x

Well, she's in her bed at the minute, so I'll get a photo of it tomorrow, she does love it tho. David made it out of some sort of board and we just recover it every so often with upholstery fabric. He made it big enough so she can turn around in it without rubbing her tail on the sides. She drags toys up there and wrestles with them!

We put our decorations up last night and Alfie totally gobsmacked us when she landed on the tree while we were putting it together! She's getting soooo brave!! Here are some pics of her getting into the christmas spirit - literally! I think she must have read my poem and said to herself "I'm not frightened at all!"! Although she hasn't gotten quite so close since the lights and baubles went on!

Alfie's cage is a bit of a mad playground! Bear in mind that she get out for lots of wing stretching excercise - her cage is crowded to keep her occupied while we're out!! She loves her bunk and usually goes to bed with no trouble. We just recovered it this week and she doesn't look twice.

Oh Dee, I'm so sorry to hear this. We are praying for Juno to make a speedy recovery. I don't know what else to say. We are all here for you when you want to chat. Take care. xx

This is a great idea Bernie - I deep forgetting about meteor showers - now maybe I'll have someone to remind me!! Looking forward to seeing some Saturn pic!

I'm struggling the same way with Alfie who turns two in feb. She started chomping the settee a couple of weeks ago. Draping stuff over whatever she's after helps for a while, but then she gets used to it and I have to find something else. Sorry I can't help, but will watch this thread with interest in case someone else can!!
